What analyst says:
Shardul Kulkarni from Angel Broking said, "There is lot of newsflow on Siemens. The stock is up 17% in a single trading session. It is very difficult to analyze on the charts as of now. But let the chart pan out over the next couple of trading sessions and only then can one take a call."
He further added, "Overall the weekly chart structure is quite good. Considering that particular structure, I would say that above Rs 870, I think you will see accelerated upward momentum in this particular counter."
CNBC-TV18's Managing Editor Udayan Mukherjee says that many people will see the subscription as a good deal at that price and that could be one of the reasons why the stock may have not fallen, despite a string of disappointing quarters.
He said, "The market always has a sense when things are coming. They waited for a year for the Siemens offer to come and now it is out. There is no denying that Siemens is paying a pretty good price. At Rs 930 per share, that is a significant premium to the current market price of Rs 725."
